Al-Houthi announces initiative to stop Yemeni rockets firing at Saudi Arabia

SANAA,  May 11 (YPA) – The head of the Supreme Revolutionary Committee, Muhammad Ali al-Houthi, announced an initiative to stop Yemeni rockets firing at Saudi Arabia, in exchange for the cessation of coalition air raids on Yemen, according to a tweet on al- Houthi twitter’s page published on Thursday evening.

Al-Houthi justified putting forward the initiative as an attempt to stop the crimes and massacres committed by the US-Saudi-led coalition against the Yemeni people.

“I hereby announce an initiative and present it to the United Nations, the Security Council and the international envoy and tell them that we are prepared to stop firing Yemeni missiles, provided that the coalition stops its flight and we will be  prepared to provide guarantees of obligation to do so as coalition must do, tit for tat,” al-Hothi said.
